Pope to Fr. Martin: Upset Gays ‘Should Look for Another’ Parish, by George Neumayr

By George Neumayr, Church Militant - Father James Martin, the leading propagandist for LGBT causes in the Church, met in late September with Pope Francis at the Vatican. The 30-minute meeting itself generated headlines and photos, but the content of the conversation between Martin and the pope was not revealed — until now… "(The Pope) asked me not to go to the press, because journalists might twist the conversation," said Martin Sunday night at a talk before "Out at St. Paul," a LGBTQ group at the Church of St. Paul the Apostle on the Upper West side of Manhattan.

By St. Thomas Aquinas, The Catholic Thing - As Augustine says, “There never seems to have been a law that was not just.” Thus it has the force of law insofar as it is just. In human affairs, something is said to be just insofar as it is right according to the rule of reason. The first rule of reason is, however, natural law.

Fr. Gerald E. Murray: Christ’s Triumph

Fr. Gerald E. Murray, The Catholic Thing - Athanasius Schneider, Auxiliary Bishop of the Archdiocese of St. Mary in Astana, Kazakhstan has recently published an important book… Schneider tackles the present crisis in the Church with profound wisdom and supernatural frankness.
